In this episode of the Right Hand Drive Guys Podcast, we sit down with Alan and Lupe from the J Spek Projekt to talk about the powerful connection between military service, brotherhood, and the JDM community. What started as a shared passion for Japanese cars has grown into something much bigger—a network of veterans and enthusiasts using cars as a way to reconnect, heal, and support one another. 
We hear how both Alan and Lupe found their way into the automotive world, from deployments overseas and discovering Japanese car culture to building some of the cleanest, most well-known project cars in the community. They share the story behind the J Spec Project, the idea of "Boost Therapy," and how a simple cruise with friends can be just as valuable as any formal therapy session. 
The conversation also dives into the changing car scenes across the country, from Florida to Utah and Oklahoma, the friendships built through JDM culture, and why preserving the sense of community is just as important as building the cars themselves. Whether you're a veteran, an enthusiast, or both, this episode is a reminder that sometimes the best therapy is a full tank of gas, a winding road, and good people beside you.

In this episode of the Right Hand Drive Guys Podcast, we tackle a topic that’s been at the heart of car culture for decades — exhaust systems. From the early days of bolt-on mufflers, Pep Boys fart cans, and local muffler shop specials to today’s high-end titanium systems, we discuss how exhausts have shaped the way we experience cars. 
We dive into the iconic exhaust brands that defined generations of enthusiasts, debate canisters versus oval mufflers, and share our thoughts on what makes an exhaust truly great. Along the way, we discuss everything from old-school HKS systems and Mugen classics to modern handcrafted titanium setups and the differences between mass-produced and custom-built exhausts. 
Of course, we also get into the age-old question: Is an exhaust about performance, sound, appearance, or all three? We share stories from our own builds, compare some of our favorite systems, and talk about why the sound of a car can be just as important as the horsepower it makes.

In this episode of the Right Hand Drive Guys Podcast, we sit down with Eli Tacker from Nashville, Tennessee, to discuss one of the most impressive Honda projects we’ve ever seen — his painstaking recreation of the legendary Gathers Honda Civic race car.
What started as a dream turned into a four-year journey of research, sourcing rare parts, and obsessing over every last detail. Eli shares the challenges of replicating one of Honda’s most iconic race-inspired liveries and how he stayed committed to authenticity throughout the build process.
We dive into the history and significance of the original Gathers Civic, the hunt for hard-to-find components, and the satisfaction of finally unveiling a project that captures the spirit of a true JDM legend. The result is more than just a replica — it’s a tribute to an era of Honda motorsports that continues to inspire enthusiasts around the world.

In this episode of the Right Hand Drive Guys Podcast, Aaron and Bobby dive into one of the wildest automotive concepts we’ve seen lately — Uber Drift. We break down the idea, the cars involved, whether it’s genius or gimmick, and what it says about how drifting and car culture are becoming more mainstream than ever before.
We also take a deep dive into the surprisingly massive role Yamaha has played in the development of some of our favorite JDM cars and engines. From high-revving performance motors to legendary cylinder head design and engineering partnerships, Yamaha’s fingerprints are all over Japanese automotive history — even if most enthusiasts don’t realize it.
From sideways Ubers to precision Japanese engineering, this episode blends modern car culture with the technical history behind some of the greatest JDM machines ever built.
🎙️ One company helped shape the sound and soul of JDM performance — and most people never noticed.
